Eliminating motion sickness and optimised for 3k120, the Mali-D77 display processor IP has new fixed function hardware for 40 per cent system bandwidth saving and 12 per cent power savings for virtual reality (VR) and head-mounted displays (HMDs.)
Wearable
Pressure sensor is sensitive for extended temperatures
A ceramic port is included in the design of the Bourns Model BPS140 pressure sensor to enhance its compatibility with certain harsh media, explains the company.
Alliance Memory adds LPDDR2 devices to low power SDRAM portfolio
Low power SDRAMs from Alliance Memory now include 256Mbit LPDDR2 devices in 134-ball and 168-ball FBGA packages.
ST combines accelerometer and temperature sensor for tight spaces
A MEMS three-axis accelerometer and a temperature sensor are combined in the LIS2DTW12. Available from STMicroelectronics, the single die is designed for use in space-constrained and battery-sensitive detectors such as shipping trackers, wearables, and IoT endpoints. The sensing accuracy of 0.8 degrees C offers precision comparable with standalone standard temperature sensors, according to ST Microelectronics.
